Frequently Asked Questions about Our Services

We help you make your processes and workflows as efficient and productive as possible by implementing individually designed solutions or solution concepts through programming macros, web applications, Windows applications, and SAP scripts.

True, BUT… that’s what the newspaper industry thought too… and then came Google. History shows that it’s always worthwhile to lead your business and associated processes as efficiently, economically, and future-oriented as possible.

Frau Müller, eine geübte Buchhalterin mit 30 Jahren Erfahrung braucht 10 Minuten, um eine Rechnung zu schreiben. Sie schreiben im Jahr 2.000 Rechnungen mit je 150,00€ Nettoumsatz. Daraus ergeben sich 300.000 € Nettoumsatz pro Jahr. Frau Müller kostet Sie jeden Monat 3.300 € Lohnkosten. Daraus ergeben sich Gesamtlohnkosten für Frau Müller von 39.600 € Lohnkosten pro Jahr. Wenn Frau Müller 10 Minuten pro Rechnung braucht (inkl. Prüfung und bei Nutzung eines veralteten Prozesses und/oder Systems), kostet Sie die Rechnungsstellung im Jahr ca. 330 Stunden. Das sind ca. zwei Monatsgehäter von Frau Müller = 6.600 €. JEDES JAHR.

Sehr vereinfachtes Rechenbeispiel:
Kaufen Sie einmal eine Software, zum Beispiel für 3.000 €, die das (semi-)automatisch erledigt und/oder Frau Müller massiv unterstützt, dann sparen Sie so ca. 3.600 € im ersten Jahr, sowie ca. 6.600 € in jedem weiteren Jahr. Ein toller Betrag, oder? Das ist Automatisierung. Prozesse können (teil-)digitalisiert und somit (semi-)automatisiert und/oder deutlich optimiert werden. Somit sinken Ihre prozessgebundenen Kosten drastisch.

Sicherlich ist diese Rechnung leicht überspitzt, findet in der Realität so, oder so ähnlich, aber tatsächlich häufig Anwendung. Das bedeutet übrigens nicht, dass Sie Frau Müller in die Wüste schicken sollen. Sie kann Ihnen in der Zeit helfen wirklich wichtige Dinge zu erledigen.

If you have booked an initial consultation, CONGRATULATIONS on the first step. From here, you don’t need any further preparation. We will illuminate your individual situation through targeted questions, thus determining the corresponding current state.

We typically conduct our initial consultations digitally (via Skype). If you prefer a different method (such as an on-site appointment), please feel free to contact us in advance so we can discuss the details. Depending on the distance, travel costs may be incurred. We are happy to discuss the details over the phone or via email.

Eifel-Informatik offers you a free and non-binding initial consultation, with which you incur no risk or obligations. We discuss your situation and then present potential solution options. If you are not satisfied with these options, you are not obliged to accept the offer or pay a purchase price for the initial consultation.

We maintain a very close exchange with our customers. Regarding the medium, we are flexible. Contact can be made via phone, email, Skype, WhatsApp, or Telegram.

It depends entirely on your individual situation and how urgently you need your solution. In general, we always deliver your projects as quickly as possible.

Based on the initial consultation, we determine if you already have a preference. We provide you with various solution options and validate the pros and cons. After the validation process, we decide together on the best and most cost-effective approach for your individual situation.

We collectively define a frequency at which it makes sense to validate the solution and its respective developments.

Frequently Asked Questions about Development

We implement our solutions using the following approaches:

  1. Excel Macros
  2. Windows applications
  3. Web applications
  4. SAP scripts

If you are unfamiliar with a method, the following explanations cover each approach.

An Excel macro automates individual steps according to a sequence defined by the programmer, using the script-oriented programming language “Visual Basic for Applications.” This allows for the programming of highly complex processes, which can interact with database systems, among other functionalities.

For you, this creates added value by having steps executed by the system rather than the user after programming. This enhances efficiency and prevents errors that may arise from manual execution.

A Windows application is a software, such as your Outlook program. It enables the efficient execution of various tasks and allows collaboration with other individuals. Typically, the system interacts with a database and is capable of exchanging information and data between users.

A web application is an application on the internet, such as your email provider. The application enables the efficient execution of various tasks and allows collaboration with other individuals. Typically, the system interacts with a database and is capable of exchanging information and data between users.

An SAP script, also known as SAP GUI scripting, is an automation interface in the ERP system “SAP” where automations can be implemented. This interface allows the automation of complex processes (such as manual order entry) as long as inputs can be formulated according to specific rules.

To ensure that the solution we develop aligns with your expectations and meets your needs to enhance your efficiency and productivity, we schedule regular quality control sessions. These sessions measure the developed solution against the pre-defined requirements. During these meetings, you have the opportunity to adjust your requirements or provide additional feedback based on the solution developed up to that point.

This approach provides you with maximum control throughout the development process and ensures full flexibility. As a result, a correct and cost-effective implementation is guaranteed, putting you in full control at all times.
